So long you can walk into a store and pay with something I see it as a valid money. So do I see Bitcoin as money? Yes. Did you know that the paper money you pay with can be worthless tomorrow just like Bitcoin? Gold is kinda the only safe currency that survived in all the times. The good thing about Bitcoin you can pay everywhere in Bitcoin without having to calculate someone else local currency. But some history lessons about the past can not hurt and it has happened before in history that paper money suddenly became worthless. It can happen again.

Nicely written!
In my opinion more and more cryptocoins will want to have some cover in the background, for example Xaurum, which has a backing with physical investment gold.
